Here is a link on muscle cramps . hope it helps. Best Wishes
Try drinking a bottle of water while laying down
Salt, lots of it.....buy some salt tablets if you have to.
The link Susan gave you is one I have used often and it is real good medical information. If you don't get an answer there here is a link to ask a WebMd doctor

Drinking water with a mixture of water and salt will help rehydrate you and replace lost electrolytes that you sweat out during physical exertion. Gatorade is actually designed to do this as well, but the salt and sugar mixture is cheaper and usually more readily available.
Also, take deep, slow breaths. This will increase the oxygen going to the muscles cells and help reduce the lactic acid that is built up in your muscles. Also stretching will help you out as well.
